SN 13650  Short slide handle?  Is the magazine end collared?

SN 14388  New Rifle.  Short slide?  Collared mag?  Flat muzzle?

SN 22819  Collared mag?

SN 342490  “A” beneath the SN?

A couple of new ones and filling in  few holes in the info!  Thanks SO much for the effort.

Thanks to both Bill Heller and agentzuk for adding their rifles into my work.  I appreciate the effort.
